Y-Pipe banging with Wolfe Crossmember, any suggestions?
I need to get this fixed. My Y is banging with my crossmember causing Knock Retard. The car is lowered 1.5" so Im afraid if I reroute it someway then it will be WAY to low. Anyone have this problem? I was thinking of going with an H-Pipe but I still think it will hit and give me false KR. What do you guys think? I am so fed up I think Im going to delete my Knock Sensors

There was a huge debate on the "other site" about Wolfe products.
From personal experience, they are the worst I've ever seen. The tolerences are way loose. Tons of fitment issues.
I don't know what to tell you other than sub-frames are a LOT cheaper than exhaust.

Does it ride on the tunnel brace or hit when taking bumps?
I would suggest an DGOETZ Fabrications Tunnel Brace, you can email me for details.

You might be able to get some customer shop to unweld/cut the crossmember up and then weld it back on with some sort of spacer. I had my crossbrace removed for my trak pac tq arm and it is now actually bolted on. The car feels the same as it did before the cutting so I think this is a viable solution.

Also washers make simple and effective spacers.
Just my thoughts

Or you could throw it away and get some G2 parts, that fit, with a guarantee.
And you know that you are getting Knock Retard every time it rattles. The
knock sensor thinks that the engine is knocking.
Just my opinion.
